Suns guard Steve Nash(notes) showed up in disguise at a Beijing pick-up game over the weekend, hoping to shoot some hoops incognito. Unfortunately, he forgot his fake mustache and monocle.
"I had on a Chinese opera bandana and I had on some protective goggles," Nash told the AFP, laughing.
"As soon as I walked on they recognized me. It didn't really work."
Really? Could have fooled me. I thought that was Horace Grant.
Nash is in China for the week doing promotional and charity work. After a few three-on-three half-court games with local regulars, Captain Canada crossed over to the nearby soccer pitch to play a little footy.
